Read this story in our January 2024 printed issue.

Sweden-based Ex-Change Parts has signed a service framework agreement for the regular supply of crucial components for all three Super Puma helicopter models with MRO provider HeliOne.

Ex-Change Parts is a global provider of helicopter aftermarket products and has developed a particular specialism for a number of aircraft, including the AS332 and EC225, and supports more than 1,600 customers worldwide including most major helicopter operators and maintenance organisations. Its 4,000sqm warehouse holds more than 60,000 line items that are sourced from more than 50 surplus inventories purchased and more than 20 part-out projects. The company has worked closely with Heli-One for decades to maintain, repair and overhaul components and materials for its customer base.

Ex-Change Parts will provide Heli-One with forecasts for its Super Puma customers' requirements, including for MRH, MGB, IGB and TGB components, enabling Heli-One to conduct necessary maintenance and repair work well in advance, meaning customers can procure the components and parts they need without delay.

Jens Morten Mørland, sales director Europe and Asia at Heli-One, says: "Our team has decades of experience in maintaining the Super Puma fleet, and this framework agreement solidifies our long-term successful business with Ex-Change Parts. We are excited to bring our expertise and, in collaboration with Ex-Change Parts, deliver premium refined and controlled refurbished parts and components to the market."

The proximity of Heli-One's Norway workshop to Ex-Change Parts' warehouse creates efficiencies for both companies, particularly as the latter continues to expand its capacity. Head of stock asset management Stefan Widén adds: "Heli-One's close proximity to our warehouse enables a rapid return of components and parts, meaning fast availability for our customers."
